Former Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt says life with baby is an adventure and she's getting fit for the challenge. THE 33-year-old, who gave birth to Willow last December, says she's determined to be a great mum after suffering a tough childhood. Kimberly Wyatt is gearing up for a triathlon. FORMER Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt started dancing aged seven. She’s still brimming with energy even four months after the birth of her daughter. The 33-year-old – once dubbed the “flexi-cat” in the group because she could lift her leg behind her ear – married model Max Rogers last February and had Willow in December. Kimberly, former judge on Sky’s Got To Dance, said: “Motherhood’s flipped my life upside down but in such a great way.

This is a new adventure and I love every minute of it. “Having Willow’s made me feel really grown-up in a way I’ve never felt before.

“Although I realised marriage was the foundation of making a life together with another person, having a child takes things to a whole new level. Wyatt left home in Missouri at 14 after winning a scholarship for a New York dance academy. She’s previously spoken of being molested at the age of three and being the victim of a rape bid aged 17, while working as a dancer on cruise ships. Kimberly said: “I am particularly determined to become a great mum because I had a difficult upbringing. “My mum didn’t have a mother when she was growing up and became a mother when she was very young and didn’t really know how to be one.

“Now I get a chance to change that cycle. I know it can be done because my mum made positive changes in her life for me and I’m hoping to make positive changes for my little one. “She was thrilled to meet her granddaughter and we have a lovely relationship nowadays.

Kimberly says she had an amazing time in seven years with the Pussycat Dolls.

But she added: “I’ve never sought fame. All I’ve ever wanted is to enjoy my passion – dance. “As my little girl grows up, I’ll encourage her to follow her passion and try to instil in her self-worth and confidence so she’s not afraid to say if she’s not OK with something and has the ability to stand up for herself. “I’ll also tell her all the time that she’s beautiful, smart and capable. “I hope to have more children and want to be a great mum. Even though I’m often sleep deprived, it feels pretty perfect and I know I’m very lucky.
